shelter , facing being euthanized due to overpopulation . Spaying , neutering and wellness for foster animals is a priority , and they support and help their rescue partners as much as possible .
How does the clinic operate by giving so much away ? Vets4Pets relies on grants , donations and fundraising to enable them to say yes to the continual stream of clients walking through their Broadway doors . All monies received through fundraising events go directly to the medical care of animals needing help .
Fundraising events are always on schedule , like the monthly Suds on Sunday Charity Dog Wash at Ferg ’ s Live Channelside . For a $ 10 donation , your pup can get a bath and a Sprinkles “ Pupcake ”, while you enjoy a Tito ’ s Cocktail .
Sponsors like Ferg ’ s Live , Tito ’ s Handmade Vodka and Sprinkles Cupcakes have made it possible to help so many animals needing medical attention and Vets4Pets is truly grateful for the continual support . There are also many business vendors that provide support and help to the clinic , knowing the importance of what Vets4Pets does for the community .
Volunteers are also an important part of the success of Vets4Pets . There are Vet Techs that donate their time each week as well as students in Veterinary Programs needing hands on experience . Vets4Pets also has a wonderful core of friends that help not only at the clinic , but at fundraising and outreach events . Vets4Pets is always in need of volunteers , and guarantees that volunteers leave feeling good about what they have done , and who they have helped . Anyone wishing to volunteer can contact karen @ hahf . org or by posting a message on their Facebook page Vets4Pets Charitable Clinic .
This holiday season is a great time to give and help Vets4Pets provide food and medical care to Tampa Bay residents needing help for their pets . Their Holiday Fund and Food Drive is underway , with boxes throughout Hillsborough County collecting dog and cat food . Monetary donations may also be made through their Facebook page or by mailing to 1050 E . Broadway Ave , Tampa Fl . 33619 .
Vets4Pets appreciates your help and support in making a difference for those in need .
